Hemoglobin, which is an iron-rich protein that is part of the red blood cell. While bone marrow produces more red blood cells over time there are certain foods that can help in increasing the production of red blood cells. THE RIGHT FOODS. Lentil beans, kidney beans, dark leafy vegetables like spinach and kale, all contain iron.
The x-ray photons are either absorbed or scattered out of the beam. In scattering, photons are ejected out of the primary beam as a result of interactions with the orbital electrons of absorber atoms. In the case of a dental x-ray beam, three mechanisms exist where these interactions take place.
The soft tissue in your body is composed of smaller atoms, and so does not absorb X-ray photons particularly well. The calcium atoms that make up your bones are much larger, so they are better at absorbing X-ray photons. In the next section, we'll see how X-ray machines put this effect to work.-rays are basically the same thing as visible light rays. Both are wavelike forms of electromagnetic energy carried by particles called photons (see How Light Works for details).
